Stricken Down Lyrics

I rode the dusty road when the sky was dark and still

Found my boy lying cold beneath the iron hill

The Man in Black was there, with shadows in his hand

I swore upon my soul, I'd chase him through this land

But my blood runs hot with hate

And my vengeance knows no bounds

I'll ride the plains of hell

To lay him in the ground

My son

Come back

Stricken down, by man with gun

My heart

Is black

Blackened by the things I've done to get

To

You

His ghost is always near

Whispers in my ear"Don't follow down this path, or lose all you hold dear"

But I've lost all I had

And I don't care if I die

I won't let the man in black, steal another life

My blood runs hot with hate

And my vengeance knows no bounds

I'll ride the plains of hell

To lay him in the ground

My son

Come back

Stricken down, by man with gun

My heart

Is black

Blackened by the things I've done to get

To

You

The winds were howling low, the night as cold as stone

I followed every trace, I hunted him alone

Through valleys deep and wide

With blood upon the sand

I saw him in the distance, the Devil's shadowed hand

But my blood runs hot with hate

And my vengeance knows no bounds

I'll ride the plains of hell

To lay him in the ground

There's nowhere you can run

Nowhere that you can hide

Soon, we will meet and I'll bring you to the light

Everything I've ever loved you stole it in one night

I swear upon my son

That vengeance will be mine

I found him by the fire

His eyes as black as night

With one shot I cut him down

But something wasn't right

His body turned to ash

And the pain still filled my chest

I killed him for my son

Now let me lay to rest

I killed him for my son

Now let me lay to rest

My son

Come back

Stricken down, by man with gun

My heart

Is black

Blackened by the things I've done to get

To

You
